[quote user="csmager"] You want it to sync with iTunes? You'll have to talk Apple into that. No device other than an Apple device will sync with iTunes, unless you use some extremely clunky workarounds. [/quote] You may have missed this page: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1037

[quote user="macjonny1"] CDs are dead... just like records... oh wait...I just bought a high-end turntable this year! I guess I'm wrong!b [/quote] You're both right and wrong. You can't download an LP - it's an analog registration of a piece of music, bound physically to the medium it is conveneyed through. The CD, however

Peter McGrath, who spends time developing speakers for Wilson Audio, will spend up to half an hour finding the best position for the speakers in a new room -- of course, he lets the goal of optimum sound dictate placement. However, if one begins by placing the speakers where they look best, are the most out of the way, or most decorative, then that

Do some more thinking, then. The leading mobile phone manufacturers produce factors more phones, and a lot more mp3 players are sold. The stand-out design makes Apple noticeable - to the point that people are using other earbuds, to avoid being seen as an Applenic. As mass marketing goes, one could say that B&O sells factors more BL5s every year

[quote user="BenSA"] Apple is a mass market product anyway....hate it when its compared to B&O. [/quote] Out of curiosity, how do you define that? As Apple traditionally has had around 3-5% market share of computers, does that make it mass market? There are computers in the same categories that cost 1/5 of an Apple; just as there are car

Ooops, Lee. You know you won't be able to get rid of them again ... I listen to many different kinds of sound systems, in everything from regular living rooms to dedicated listening rooms, and the BeoLab 5s rank among the very best when it comes to the remarkable sound quality they are capable of. Simple guidelines for BeoLab 5 bliss: Do set them

[quote user="TripEnglish"] I would put the value between $10-$15 USD. I will offer you $20 because I'm very generous. [/quote] Charming, Trip. Many are very pleased with both the amplifier (Beomaster) and the CD-player in the Beosystem 5500, and if they 're in good working condition, you should be able to get a fair price for the set

Congratulations. Looks like a very well treated and maintained unit! You'll be very pleased when you switch it on.

Yes, my workaround above would fail if I had a CD-player connected to the Beomaster 7000. But I haven't looked into the possibilities for assigning the cd-player to another unit through LIST, to free up CD for the soundcard, as I have it now. I believe B&O abandoned their coax s/pdif connection when they came up with Beosystem 3, which doesn't

First, a little discovery I made after reading that the BeoLab 5s give priority to a digital coax s/pdif signal over all other signals being sent to it. That means the BL5s use the s/pdif over the Powerlink audio from the BeoSound 9000, in your case, because of this override. I have set up my BL5s with a Beomaster 7000 which feeds it a Powerlink signal
